He can now open his eyes for a few precious seconds.

His speech is slightly slurred but he makes perfect sense. He has not lost his dry wit or sense of humor. He recognizes everyone and is making jokes about his situation.

Who would have ever imagined the tremendous beneficial impact loving family members can have on their sick or injured loved ones.

Often, simple things like massaging the reflex points in their hands and feet and auricular points in the ears has an amazingly valuable impact. People, even when they are not sick or injured, are desperate for human touch.

Wouldn't you kill to have some one rub your hands, feet and ears?

The power in the massage is knowing where the points are located that need special attention. You want to concentrate on the energy points directly related to the injured or malfunctioning areas. If you are willing to sacrifice a little of your time and healing energy, you to can help your family members dramatically.

Also, the health professionals won't be freaked out by your actions.

Secretly, they are wishing you would massage them next. In most cases, they deserve a quick massage for all their diligent hard work caring for your family member!

Of course, this would be a great thing to do on yourself and for other family members to keep them healthy.

After a person has their hands, feet and ears massaged even once, they are anxious to receive these tender ministrations as often as possible. Why not get a reflex hand and foot roller for yourself. They only cost a few dollars. Then you can use it daily. Massaging your hands and feet by just rolling them over the reflex roller on the floor is so simple, yet so incredibly powerful.

You will be amazed at how sore the points on your hands and feet are initially.

When you look at the hand and foot reflex charts and locate your sore points, you will be astounded at direct relationship to your health problems. It is incredible how fast these sore points disappear. Massaging your hands, feet and ears should be a daily part of your new health plan.

When you are consistently massaging yourself, you will experience in a few short days enjoyable feelings of well-being and better health.

This is one of the cheapest and fastest ways to increase your health and vitality. The subtle energy systems balance throughout your entire body rapidly. I carry my inexpensive hand and foot roller where ever I travel. It is worth its weight in gold.

The Life Field Polarizer is another secret weapon in one's healing arsenal few people know about.

I learned about Polarizers back in 1980. At the time I was the Technical Director for a chain of health spas "Family Fitness Centers." I was in charge of health research and training the counselors how to put members on exercise programs. We wanted to help them achieve their health goals without getting injured.

One of my missions as the "Holistic Health Human Guinea Pig" was to research holistic health therapies.

 We traded memberships to the practitioners in exchange for my treatments. It was one of the major missing links to my health challenges.

What better way to see if the therapies were a fraud or really worked than testing them out on my own body.

Many of the therapies were beneficial, but at that time in history very revolutionary. The local "Holistic Health Newspaper" wrote articles about my experiences. The practitioners were invited to promote their therapies at monthly seminars for "Family Fitness Center" members. Every one loved the seminars and learned a lot.

Unfortunately, the owners of "Family Fitness Centers "were threatened with the loss of their lease for the La Jolla center if the seminars continued.

The conventional medical center that owned the property considered the therapies quackery. The practitioners were frauds of the worst order. The owner of "Family Fitness Centers" told me to forget the "Holistic Health Guinea Pig Program," dump my super hero for health, Captain Biorhythm, and return to being Ralph Zuranski. He said, "You will get met more credibility without all that other bizarre stuff."

Little did I know that while working for "May Company," a major department store in Mission Valley, I was being cooked alive by EMF radiation.

While attending UCSD, Revelle College at the La Jolla campus, I worked full-time at "May Company" in the major appliance department. I sold televisions, stereos, washers, dryers and refrigerators. I dropped everything and started working for the company called "Environmental Polarity Research." My benefits were so great, I was on a mission to teach people about the harmful effect of EMF radiation and how the Polarizers change the harmful effects from bad to good. (I will upload information about the Life Field Polarizers and FREE charts of the reflex points on the hands and feet and an auricular chart for the ears later today) Simple subtle energy therapies practiced in the secret recesses of the hospital room, when no one is looking, makes you feel a little like a secret agent. You are! In fact, you are an angel of mercy. When you massage the reflex points in the hands and feet and the acupuncture points in the ear, you are stimulating and balancing the energy system of your loved one. You are benefiting your patient physically, emotionally and spiritually in so many ways by giving them some of your precious healing energy. Your prayers and positive expectations enhance the beneficial affects of your tender, hands-on massage of the most powerful energy systems in the body.

Many people say that a person who is their own doctor is a fool.

In many cases that is true if you are dealing with diseases and catastrophic, life-threatening events. Wise individuals invest time and money in improving their health on a daily basis.

Let's face the fact that exercise, eating healthy, keeping a positive attitude despite the events going on around you takes time, energy and commitment.

Is it hard to be consistent? You bet. Will most of the people in your family be threatened by your new healthy habits and positive attitude? Of, course they will. You might just become a pariah, someone who no one wants to be around.
